The game is deeply connected to philosophy in China (Chinese philosophy), as in placing value of a mystical nature on mastering the game. AlphaGO made the pitch of deep wisdom can be found in go questionable. Just my take.

Well sort of, but perhaps what it made questionable is the stronger pitch that wisdom translates to mastery of go.

It goes both ways, my take is how it was perceived by some is as improve in go=improve in wisdom
